Naughty By Nature has become a household name in the music world and their iconic logo has been seared in the minds of every hiphop fan that has ever heard their music. Now, in 2010, Mark Weinberg sits down with VinRock to discuss the moment in time when he created this logo, while sitting at a bar in lower Manhattan. Mark also was the creative mind behind many of Naughty By Nature&#8217;s brilliant album covers. Mark was the artistic creative eye behind many of the Tommy Boy Records&#8217; early groups, including De La Soul, Stetsasonic and Naughty By Nature to name a few.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in the day, a gentleman by the name of Mark Weinberg created what would&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[9,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8511","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-interviews","category-videos"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.9 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Back in the day, a gentleman by the name of Mark Weinberg created what would become an internationally recognizable logo that would be the stamp of one of the biggest HipHop brands in the world.
